List of Clothing & Textiles Manufacturers in Malaysia

Malaysia clothing production

Looking for a new manufacturing base for your latest clothing designs? While Malaysia is often overlooked as a manufacturing destination for textiles, the Southeast Asian country has a long history as a textiles manufacturing hub in the region.

In this guide, we list some of Malaysia’s leading textiles manufacturers, many of which are based in and around Kuala Lumpur and Johor Bahru.

Listed Manufacturers

  • K&Z Enterprise Sdn. Bhd.
  • Body Work Apparel Sdn Bhd
  • Lelitex
  • AG Apparel Industries Sdn. Bhd
  • Nyok Lan Group
  • Hing Fong Garments Sdn Bhd
  • Rightway Apparel
  • KH Group
  • Sherwood Protective Apparel Sdn Bhd
  • Lippotex
  • Whitex Garments Sdn Bhd
  • Classita (M) Sdn Bhd

Listed Products

  • Sportswear
  • Sleepwear
  • Knitwear
  • Men’s suits
  • Underwear
  • Lingerie & bras
  • Polo shirts
  • Babywear
  • T-shirts
  • Workwear
  • Fabrics
  • Seamless wear

What do I need to prepare before contacting any of the listed suppliers?

Clothing and textiles manufacturers rarely design their own products. Instead, they rely on you, the buyer, to provide a complete techpack:

  • Sewing patterns
  • Size chart
  • Bill of materials
  • Care label file
  • Logo files

As a small customer, you have to be an ‘easy customer’. Without a techpack, you shouldn’t expect a single reply from any of the suppliers in this list.

Can I expect lower prices compared to Chinese factories?

Malaysia has no advantage in terms of labor costs. Malaysian workers earn on average about as much as one in Mainland China.  Further, Malaysia is less self-sufficient when it comes to fabrics, zippers, velcro and other components – which are often actually imported from China or other countries in ASEAN.

As such, you should not expect any price cuts when sourcing clothing manufacturers in Malaysia. That said, the country still has a highly competitive clothing and textiles manufacturing base standing on its own merits.

Another benefit is that English is an official language in Malaysia, making it far easier to communicate with your suppliers.

List of Gloves Manufacturers in China

Posted on by Ika Liu — Leave a comment

Looking for glove suppliers in Mainland China? In this article, we list factories located in Zhejiang, Hebei, Guangdong, and Fujian – covering everything from safety and sports gloves to knitted and leather gloves.

In addition, we also explain why it’s essential to create a comprehensive product specification, regardless of whether you intend to buy custom-designed (OEM) or private label (ODM) gloves.

What should I include in my product specification?

When I speak to our customers on the phone, I often say that a product is only as good as its specification. In a way, you only get what you specify in terms of design, quality, and materials – nothing more or less.

As such, it’s crucial to understand what defines the design and quality of your gloves.

This is what I suggest you to include in your product specification:

  • Design drawings
  • Sewing patterns
  • Size chart
  • Bill of materials (e.g. fabrics and buttons)
  • Logo files
  • Care label

baseball cap

Planning to import caps or other headwear from factories in China? In this article, we list cap and hat suppliers in Guangdong, Jiangsu and other provinces.

In addition, we also answer key questions about what to include in your techpack, common quality issues and minimum order quantities.

Where are most Cap factories located in China?

Most export-oriented cap and headwear suppliers are located in Fujian, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, and Guangdong. If you’re planning to visit suppliers in this industry you’re quite likely to find yourself in at least one of the following cities:

  • Guangzhou, Guangdong
  • Dongguan, Guangdong
  • Xiamen, Fujian
  • Quanzhou, Fujian
  • Zhenjiang, Jiangsu

What should I include in my techpack?

While most factories can present showrooms full of demo products they’ve made for other customers, they still expect you to provide a complete techpack. These files must be included:

  • Design drawing
  • Sewing pattern
  • Bill of materials (fabric, color codes, velcro, and other parts)
  • Care label
  • Logo / Embroidery files
  • Size chart

While it may seem like a shortcut to send over a reference sample to the factory, that’s rarely the case. We’ve dealt with many cases involving buyer’s that fail to provide clear product information to their factories – something that often results in severe quality issues.
